Hijacked thread.
Concur.This should be stickied again, and/or updated with further information.
I'm using SlickPic for my LP. The best thing about this service is that it does not rename your files, so it's easier to prepare a LP. My current flow is this:
1. Play, create screenshots at full resolution with FRAPS (1920x1200)
2. Open .txt in which I write the LP on main monitor, open ordinary windows picture viewer on another.
3. When encountering a screenshot I want to use I choose File->make copy and save it as 0000.png or whatever ordinal number I want. That way even the screenies themselves form some kind of narrative.
4. Use IrfanView batch convert to make screens to more manageable size and from a lossless PNG to lossy JPG.
Making a copy ensures that I don't destroy any source material I may still need for the update. Windows viewer is annoying though, as there is no keyboard shortcut for it. It is enough for my current, rather small LP, but if I do something bigger in the future I'll definitely look for another viewer that would help me automate this.
Ehm, no. I guess I just used it before they started adding it. Or maybe I'm linking in a particular way... See source of my post, maybe there's something particular in the link.
Hah, no.A video is worth a thousand screenshots.
